📖 Scripture for Today

💬 Theme
Prayer is not resignation—it is expectation.
🪷 The Power of Expectation
Hope is not wishful thinking. It is confident trust in God’s promises.
Paul reminds us that hope is not self-made—it is Spirit-powered. Hope lifts your eyes above circumstances, anchors your soul in God’s faithfulness, and fuels joy and peace even in uncertainty.
To hope means to expect, to anticipate, and to believe. It is the posture of faith, the practice of endurance, and the pathway to joy.
Prayer doesn’t begin with despair.
It begins with hope.
🙏 Today’s Prayer
Father, fill me with hope.
Let joy and peace overflow as I trust You.
Teach me to expect Your goodness even in hard places.
Let my hope today inspire generations to believe.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
